Most journals require more evidence than what passes as such in a court of law. On the say-so of a dog can amount to evidence in some courts. Specifically talking about K9s granting reasonable cause to search a vehicle or premises, even if

As a remote worker I have to disagree. My value is the local value for the employer. I could decide (and recently did) to move countries and it might change taxation and labor laws but for the most part they don't care about where I am

Sabine has been so rock solid on everything I've seen from her that I tend to take her seriously.

I'm a 10 year Python veteran and I've never had to think about garbage collection. Back in the day I did find out that del didn't actually free up memory (memory footprint could only ever increase for a process, only way to &

There are benefits to sharpening the blade. If your day job vanishes all of a sudden (happened to me twice in my career), having your tentacles out to look for gigs will soften the blow. I've also had a gig turn into a dayjob (even if

There's no easy way to do that. You have to market yourself as worth the money. You are absolutely right about fiverr, upwork and similar outlets will not bring clients that pay good money and they are usually more demanding than when

None of this is legal advice (IANAL). If you live in a country where there are whistleblower protections you should talk with an attorney and see if you can report this to the relevant investigative authority under protection of that statut

I used to take 125$/hour but haven't felt the need to take on clients for a while (dayjob is plenty for me). If I were to joint the hustle again, it wouldn't be at less than 250.

Google's lack of human support actually is starting to sound like a business opportunity. Search sucks, we all know it (buying search from kagi.com myself), Byzantine mechanisms and Kafkaesque review processes. I would think if anyone

It's a very rare Bible quote to get a thumbs up from me. Well done.

Solution was discussed on HN the other day. The process by which we displace putting more carbon in the air is quite well understood and will be economically viable if we can bring down and scale up energy production, cost by a little, prod

The design documents are really thorough. I don't think I would be more than a day making a serializer in Python for example. Lack of libraries just means an interested developer needs to tend to the matter and solve the issue.

A sibling has the data. For that case it's 10% of egress which can be a healthy chunk of change on your bill. For all such use cases you should of course benchmark a lot and then pick what fits. I think this tool is a nice one to have

If your egress is paramount, you should of course benchmark everything to shreds. Then pick what fits.

Perhaps you haven't had to program concurrencies or thought much about bitwise operators. It's not very frequent anymore. Used to be.

JCOF and gzip are not mutex.

by Beltiras 4y ago
This actually does. I used Python gzip to see how the minified would compress and came up with 157 bytes to JCOF's 134. Using the same mechanism to gzip the JCOF saves only 4 bytes. I'm actually rather impressed.

My problem is that this is a 20 year plus collection. It's of a size where logistics are needed to move the darn thing and monetizing it's value will be somewhat hard.
